The Exhibition
features photos, videos, and audio from ZackieL’s nearly two-month stay with the Shipibo-Conibo Vargas family at their Sanken Nete retreat centre in the Peruvian Amazon.
He recorded a piece used in the opening credits of the Universal Pictures FilmTàr, as well as connecting with the family and the medicine.
The audio captures Icaros - ceremonial medicine songs - described by Mama Elisa Vargas as pieces devoted to 'processing and healing the grief of our world as it has lived through covid, wars, and global suffering.”
